Klong Mai, Bang Pu, Samut Prakan.</p><p>Etymology.</p><p>Named for the freshwater habitat where the species was collected.</p><p>Remarks.</p><p>Platorchestia aquaticus sp. nov. is the first species of  Platorchestia recorded from Southeast Asia. The genus  Platorchestia is classified as supra-littoral and terrestrial and is sexually dimorphic in antenna 2 and gnathopods 1 and 2. Males present two different forms in the population. The major form of  P. aquaticus, based on the male holotype, appears similar to  P. pacifica (Miyamoto &amp; Morino, 2004),  P. paraplatensis (Serejo &amp; Lowry, 2008), and  P. smithi (Lowry, 2012) in the following characteristics: 1) mandible left lacinia mobilis 5 dentate, 2) coxae 3 and 4 as wide as deep, 3) gnathopod 1 dactylus slightly short or subequal to palm, 4) gnathopod 1 propodus subtriangular, palm transverse, 5) Uropod 3 peduncle with two or three robust setae, 6) telson longer than broad. However,  Platorchestia aquaticus sp. nov. may be distinguished from other closely related species as follows: 1) gnathopod 1 with rudimentary cusps on dactylus ( P. pacifica and  P. paraplatensis gnathopod 1 with distinct cusp on dactylus), 2) propodus of gnathopod 2 without notch on palmar margin, 3) uropod 1 peduncle with nine or ten robust setae in two rows, 4) uropod 3 ramus with single robust marginal seta, 5) telson with three robust marginal setae and three robust apical setae per lobe.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/E37C7474080E5EAAB81BC594F65D4612	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Antenna 2 peduncular article 3 without ventral plate; articles 4 and 5 occasionally incrassate in males. Maxilliped palp article 2 with distomedial lobe; article 4 reduced, button-shaped.

Lowry and Myers (2022) established the new subfamily  Platorchestiinae, which accommodates 15 genera, including  Platorchestia . The  Platorchestia sensu stricto is equivalent to Group 1 of Miyamoto (antenna 2 and pereopods 6 and 7 are strongly sexually dimorphic and represented by supralittoral species). Subsequently, Myers and Lowry (2023) described three new  Platorchestia species and provided the diagnostic characteristics as antenna 2 sexually dimorphic by articles 4 and 5, which are generally incrassate in males and pereopod 7 often incrassate in male articles 5–7. The combination of antenna 2 and pereopod 7 incrassate was classified into Group 1 and Group 2 by Miyamoto and Morino (2004).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/E620BDBD67E25CBA99F6A0D4BE772DB8	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
